They should have McMahon get blown up again and have them act like this time “IT’S FOR REAL!”

Benoit…roid freak and GBH user. Niiiiiiice.

No, i liked the Vince is Dead storyline. I see no reason they can’t pick it back up. Honestly, besides the Benoit murder spree, its the only thing Ive found interesting in WWE in like 5 years.

WWE’s biggest fuck up - how about buying out ECW and WCW, so that you monopolise the industry and, without any semblance of REAL competition, become stale, bloated and lethargic, content to pump out any old crap, because you know that there is nowhere else for the average wrestling punter (the guy who doesn’t know about TNA or ROH, or whatever) to go for their fix.

Seriosuly, it may have been a sound business move, if only because it gave Vince the majority of North American wrestling history on a silver platter for his highly profitable restrospective DVDs (which is a Good Thing) but whilst the WWE’s history may have been well served, its future became bleak and all the Brand Extensions and ECW resurrections in the world can’t change that.

If a creative medium has no real competition, it is doomed to wallow in complacency.

Don’t know if you were making a joke there, 4 but I had high hopes for that storyline.

One of which was introducing a masked wrestler that wore pink and black and had a similar moveset to the Hitman. He’d gain the love of the fans, partner with Cena and at Wrestlemania shock the world revealing himself to be Mr. McMahon and cost Cena the championship.

Oh well.

besides, i already said they should promote guys who can wrestle, not the bodybuilding freaks. the sport NEEDS to evolve past what Lawerence called “pitiful form of wrestling”, and I agree with you there. But I don’t build these guys up or give a shit about them. They’re mostly a bunch of douches who are in it for the money. I just watch TV, and isn’t this a TV BLOG?

i don’t care about these guys. I watch these shows because it’s like a live action comic book. They’re a bunch of jocks and manly-men, John Cena being the perfect example. I would never hang out with that guy. It’s a fucking TV SHOW. Get off your high horse.

Agreed. I refuse to watch any more of this bullshit until it is clear that substantive change has taken place. If it takes Congress to get involved, so be it. These people are fucking destroying their bodies for our entertainment, and we keep throwing Vince McMahon money hand over fist. This “business” (I hate that term) needs an overhaul. The wellness policy ought to be far more stringently enforced. It should have taken more than a wrestler, probably under the influence of steroids (possibly under depression from withdrawl) and god knows what else, murdering his family to make us realize this. Change can only be enacted if we allow it. These guys need more time off. If they test positive for substances, they need help; they don’t need to be thrown to the wolves, out of WWE’s hair where they will languish. I don’t care if every wrestler in the future has the physique of Trevor Murdoch, so long as they are healthy, and they can healthily maintain their livelihoods and continue to entertain us. Tell Vince you don’t want any more Eddies or Bulldogs or Pillmans and quit watching and buying his bullshit.

This is pathetic, everyone debating this bullshit stuff.

The reason these wrestlers die is because we are so ho-hum about keeping the status quo so we can watch our wrestling.

We could atleast attempt set the WWE on a path that could start to set things straight if we simply took a long break as fans. They would have no choice but to alter the “product” to bring people back, especially in light of what happend this week.

Things won’t change aslong as McMahon, the top stars, the promoters and even the up and coming guys know that we will keep coming back and shelling out money no matter what.

As far as I’m concerned this is the matter that changed that for me. I won’t buy anything the WWE puts out, I’m canceling 24/7 (the only place I spend money on them) and I’m avoiding all their Television and their website until I feel like they give a shit and guess what…they never will because we don’t give a shit.

So continue your fucking DVD reviews and star ratings, your stupid blogs but don’t you dare shed a tear for these juiced up freaks that you created.

One day I hope enough will be enough and this pitiful form of wrestling will die, probably taking the whole form with it. We’ll all wonder who should take responsbility but we won’t have to look any further then the mirror.

Save yourselves some time and stop pretending like you give a shit about these guys as people, or the longevity of wrestling.
